Grandsire - Bob the Blagdon (now in the USA)
Abbey is a traditional sized Gypsy Vanner. She is a blagdon in coloring with profuse amounts of mane and feather! She actually had as much feather as a yearling as most fully mature mares. Abbey has a solid pedigree and her sire is the best Blagdon Stallion anywhere in the UK.
Abbey is again in foal to our Django and is due in early April of 2012. Abbey is a foundation mare for us and she is adored by many. She is well under saddle, has a super work ethic and is absolutely fantastic with children. She is the one we always choose when working with the young children because she is so calm and gentle and nurturing.
Abbey is becoming the most lovely mare. She is heavy and built like a tank with feather that is purely amazing. Great bone, great movement and soooo wonderful as a mother. She gave us a colt in 2009, named Micah, that will take the show world by storm. He will be the next up and coming Bulleseye and will remain a Stallion with his new owners.
We love our dear little Welsh Abbey.
Another amazing mare imported from the Tom Price herds.
